Photoshop :: Calibrate Widescreen Monitor For...
Dec 19, 2008
My Viewsonic vx924 quit so I bought two more 19" widescreen monitors. Both have very uneven color and display a mustard color even after calibrating. It is almost impossible to buy a 4:3 aspect ratio any more. My Spyder is old and may need replacing but it seemed to work after reducing monitor from widescreen to 4:3. It almost looks like a dark to light gradient across the monitor.
Question: What are you doing to prevent this with your widescreen? Can they be calibrated? What brand widescreen monitor works for you with CS3?

I have a Dell 30" monitor and Photoshop cs 3 on new Dell desktop with Vista. I am attempting to calibrate with GregaMacbeth eye-one display 2. I print on an Espson 7800.
All worked fine until I got the new computer with Vista. After dozens of attempts over 4 months my monitor display is not even close to the prints. Colors are too warm and saturated.

I want to calibrate my display properly and I am little confused. There are too many settings and wizards. First of all there are display settings (brightness, contrast, black level, color temperature, sharpness). Second -- graphics card settings (hue, saturation, brightness, contrast, color temperature, color correction curves). Third -- there are Windows color management settings in Control Panel (ICC profiles, WCS profiles, etc). Fourth -- Adobe Gamma. Firth -- I can use calorimeter to set display LUT.
How all that level of settings are related? In what order they should be changed? What color temperature is "best"? How Adobe gamma correlated with Windows 7 color management wizard? What is best? (They are producing different profiles.)
I "just" want to make photos of what I see, see it then on display more or less precisely and then print it.

I need to show specific ratios on the image, e.g., this distance is to this as that is to that. A measuring tool that works in pixels is pretty cumbersome. IS it possible to re-calibrate the ruler tool to measure in millimeters, centimeters, etc.? Pixels don't really make it for me. It seems like an obvious choice, but I can't figure out how to do it.

I have a widescreen laptop and obviously when I display Photo's they are distorted. Can anyone tell me if there is a set formular to diplay photo's to look normal on a widescreen computer, ie with Skew or Transform or something. At present I just guess using "Free Transform", but I'm sure there must be a more scientific method in my Photoshop CS.

I have some questions related to the use of Photoshop for the preparation of images for projectors and presentations.
I've noticed lately that most presentations I seem to attend are presented with images in widescreen format (16:9). I have found some higher resolution projectors available in widescreen format but have some questions.
In case I create my slides with a size of 1920 x 1080, do I need to adjust anything in Photoshop for this ? Using basic mathematics I would imagine that no adjustments would be necessary. After all 1920 x 1080 amounts to a perfect relationship of 16:9. Is this correct ? Should I expect that images projected by a projector with this aspect ratio will contain square pixels and no adjustments are necessary in Photoshop ?
Is there any situation where a pixel is project as a rectangle instead of a square and adjustments to accomodate this need to be made in Photoshop ?

I'm trying to use a digitizer tablet in Illustrator but I can't figure out how to calibrate it so that the vectors come out at the right size/length regardless of the zoom level. In CAD, the 'tablet' command allows you to pick two points on the tablet and correspond that to two points on the CAD model space and after you do that, the scale at which you draw remains constant. I'm drawing archaeological sections so the scale needs to be exact.
I've had difficulty trying to do the same in Illustrator.

Why can't I drop a clip in the Program Monitor from the Source Monitor in Premiere? When I try to move a clip from the Source to the Program Monitor, a hand displays with the "circle with a line through it" symbol.

Using Elements 9 when cropping photos to add to a slideshow do I need to crop a "custom" size to enable the slideshow to be later added to a DVD on Windows Movie Maker and played on a wiescreen TV or can I just choose "no restriction" and then specify DVD Aspect ratio of 16.9 when creating the DVD?

I have used ACAD Lt 2000 for years and it has been fine untill recently. It does not seem to like the new hardware so I am trying the 2012 Lt for 30 days. One thing it is not letting me do is calibrate the digitizer, (a GTCO 3648 Rollup II) I am not even getting a "tools" menu and typing in "CAL" gets me a weird " >> Expression: " in the command line. It shows:
(mouse icon) Menu: Tools > Tablet > Configure

LR 5.3, Develop module - I seem to have lost all my options under Camera Calibrate. All I have now is Camera Standard and Matrix, where I used to have a slew of options. I'm still using the same camera and lenses, which are known to Adobe, processing RAW files.

We are now using Canon X10 HD cameras and recording in h.264 1440 X 1080. The finished product has to be MPEG2 for Public Access TV broadcast.
I can't seem to be able to adjust settings to accomplish this. Both Custom and Movie Template have the user defined button greyed out.

I have run into a roadblock -- I am having trouble authoring my DVD. I have watched the tutorials and read (and re-read) the User Guide.
I used my Canon HF S200 to shoot video of family reunions. It is about 2 1/2 hours long and I have about 32 chapters. I am ready to burn a DVD. but my chapters weren't appearing in the DVD Preview.
Further investigation showed that my project is 10.01 GBs and that my DVD only has 4.38 GB usable space.
It doesn't make sense to me. I rent Hollywood movies all the time that are nearly 3 hours long -- and those are certainly much more detailed than my little video.
I really don't want to split this project into 3 DVDs == that would be stupid.
How can I adjust settings so that my DVD fits -- and all of my Chapters appear in the DVD Preview prior to burning? I would like wide screen setting.

I have video studio 7 SE DVD. When I capture edit and share my file and burn it to DVD, the picture looks fat and stretched whenplayed on a widescreen TV.
I have played around with some of the properties and setting on the program but everything I do has the same effect.
I can have the TV set to 4.3 and the picture is fine but of course I have the black bars on each side.
Is there a way to have it show correctly on the widescreen TV without affecting the quality?
I dont mind if it cut some of the picture out as in top and bottom, I just want to keep the picture the right ratio without stretching it to fit.
My video camera I am using is a DV cam. I think it might be half the problem as it records in 4.3 format and is playing on a 16.9 TV.

I just upgraded to the X4. I never had this problem with the X3. I use a hitachi camcorder and the clips it produces are mpeg. The settings I use on the X4 are the default settings. When I place the clips on the timeline, they show up as 16:9. When I press play, they are still in 16:9 format.
However, when I create a video file using option DVD 16:9, I get the following problem. While the clip is playing, it will start as 16:9 then change to 4:3 and then back to 16:9 again and so on.
Is there a setting that I'm supposed to change. This never happened with the X3.

I've recently changed from PC to Laptop and reinstalled Videostudio x4.
On my last PC (which was considerably older and less capable) while using the stop-motion editor, I could capture in upto 1280 x 720 resolution using my Microsoft Lifecam 5000 HD - however now with the same camera after the reinstall the highest resolution on the drop-down menu is 640 x 480 which obviously isnt widescreen or anywhere near in terms of resolution.
One thing which could be related is that on this laptop I have two lots of "program files" - "Progam Files" and "Program Files (x86)". The program itself is installed on the x86 section but when VS is searching for sample videos or overlays etc they've all needed relinking as its attempting to find them in the normal "Program Files" folder - could the resolution problem be a similar relinking issue?

My video properties are 16:9, but VSX4 isn't letting me change them. And there's no splash screen to start with.
How do I change it? I just spent weeks going through all of my photos and putting the 4:3 on backgrounds to make them all 16:9. My video is already at 16:9.

I have used on and off MovieFactory for a number of years and have been well pleased. It's simple to use and doesn't require a degree in software use to make effective DVD's playable in all DVD players.I shoot my footage with a Panasonic NV-MX300 3 CCD camcorder, which although a few years old now, can hold it's own with lower end so called HD Camcorders
My method of creating a DVD has been to capture the footage using a third-party Video editor and then importing it's export into Movie Factory and then work from there.
I have recently upgraded my version of MovieFactory 6 Plus to VideoStudio Pro X4 as this seems to better support the creation of HD BluRay discs. No I don't have the Power Pack Plug-in with my version of MovieFactory but thought that upgrading would better suit my needs.I have created, successfully a 35Gb .AVI file using my third-party NLE and it's properties are as follows: -
Stream 0
Type: Video
Codec: DV Video (dvsd)
Resolution: 720x576
Frame rate: 25
Stream 1
Type: Audio
Codec: PCM S16 LE (araw)
Channels: Stereo
Sample rate: 48000 Hz
Bits per sample: 16
My original DV footage was roughly this too. It was shot in Widescreen although the sound was recorded in 32000 Hz stereo. When I import the video into either MF 6 or VS Pro 4 the playback is in a squashed 4:3 aspect Ratio and no matter how I alter the preferences or Project Settings, before or after importing the .AVI file, it refuses to play back in widescreen.When the exported file plays in VLC Player or Windows Media Player, it plays back correctly.

My ten year old crt is displaying color fluctuations - from calibrated to redish and back again, every few minutes.
I went on line to decide which crt to buy as a replacement and was stunned to find only very low end units offered, I can not find any suitable crt choices.
I need advice as to, are lcd monitors now up to the task for quality editing in Photoshop.
Your expert advice, gained from 1st hand experience will be appreciated.
I've read that the best way to shop for a new LCD is to test out each model 1st - even though I live on the border of Chicago (Evanston), I don't think there is any outlet available where this can be done.
I've also read that LCD makers use differing conditions and benchmarks to rate their contrast ratios.

I'm working on a graphic for a Flash presentation. I've been working in Windows RGB proof setup. Then I realized that when I save as a JPG, it changes color. I spent a lot of time getting the colors on this abstract piece perfect, and don't relish the thought of having to go it again using the Monitor proof setup. Is there a way to convert the way the colors look in Windows Proof to be the same as it looks in Monitor RBG proof?
